The Coexistence Mural


Miami artist Xavier Cortada began work on this mural during the
NCCJ Leadership Seminar:  From Coexistence to Community on July 1, 2003 at Miami-Dade College in Miami, FL.  He incorporated words from the panel discussion and audience response during the seminar, as well as messages from those who participated.  The artist also incorporated messages received from art students during  Artists Speak Out, a Community Leadership Seminar organized by the Greater Miami Chapter of the National Council on Community and Justice (NCCJ) on November 4, 2003 at Miami-Dade College.  The workshops were part of the Coexistence Miami project.
